Keeping Kids Warm donates more than 400 jackets

More than 400 students at Beatty Park, Trevitt, Easthaven and West Broad elementary schools received new winter coats on Nov. 16.

This was in effort by the Keeping Kids Warm program. In its 16 years the program has donated more than 150,000 coats to children in need.

A program sponsored by Charming Shoppes, it plans to present more than 20,000 children with winter jackets this fall through schools and non-profit partners.
